Hunter X Hunter 368 Manga Release -I don't get why people are complaining over this last chapter focusing on a cockroach because this cockroach is going to play a big role in the whole spying session. And the tension that's building up between babimania and kurapika. Not every chapter is going to be 'blew my mind' level. I'm assuming that kurapika deactivated his et, then as the job of the dolphin, for the time being, is over. I like how the bodyguards have an individuality to them, they aren't all completely fodder and can actually do their job. Queen oito is a nice surprise as well, I like how she isn't a damsel-in-distress that pika has to protect all the time, she's intelligent and knows how to stand on her own feet. Probably that cockroach will play a big role when chrollo commit requiem pt.2 if that happens I will admit blew my mind level. Kurapika hasn't left emperor time at all the dolphin's still remains yet he's use hatsu!

August

August is part of the Alvarez Empire as one of the Spriggan 12, the protection guard of Emperor Spriggan. August is a tall, elderly man with long, white hair. He has a short mustache, and a lengthy, thin beard, reaching down to his upper torso. He wears a long, billowing, light-colored robe with tattered edges on its bottom portion and intricately designed linings on the sleeves. He keeps this robe tied together with a belt made of a seemingly rope-like material. August also wears a dark-colored cape, which juts out in spikes near his head and has the symbol of the Alvarez Empire emblazoned on its back.

The cape is kept in its place by a long cloth tied around it and August's neck and held fast by a spherical shaped clip. He completes this outfit with black boots and a wooden staff with a large orb at its tip.August is shown to be a respectful person, addressing Emperor Spriggan as "Your Majesty", unlike Ajeel's informal behavior. He is also very cryptic; giving wise statements to others. Despite this, he is rather protective of comrades, and says it is a painful thing to lose one. According to Jacob Lessio, he claims he has no sense of humor. August appears before Zeref and his fellow Spriggan 12 members and comments on the fact that Zeref seems happier than before, implying that it's because he found his answer to Ragnarok. Zeref replies that in Ishgar they actually call it the Dragon King Festival. At that moment, Yajeel appears bringing Makarov Dreyar in to have an audience with Zeref, and August, Dimaria, Ajeel, and Invel leave upon Zeref's request. He is later seen approaching Ajeel, having protected the Sand Mage with his magical barrier from Laxus Dreyar's lightning blast. Ajeel confronts him about his actions, while August states that it's painful to lose a comrade. Ajeel asks if August really thinks he would die from something like that, stating the old Mage has gone senile. At the meeting of the Spriggan 12, August bows his head and tells Zeref they are all prepared for the end; the war against Ishgar.

After Zeref states he wishes for mankind to perish, August responds that they are but pawns. August then takes off towards the west to arrive at Fiore's eastern border with God Serena and Jacob Lessio, along with a force equal to a million soldiers; along they way they fly over Bosco and annihilate the country and all their guilds between the three of them. Eventually, they arrive at the eastern border and leave their ships, where they encounter Draculos Hyberion, Wolfheim, Warrod Sequen and Jura Neekis waiting for them. August, alongside Jacob, remains completely uninvolved in God Serena's fight against his former comrades, and instead watches as he easily defeats them all by himself. August then continues to watch as God Serena's opponents launch a counterattack and leave him cornered; he stops Jacob from stepping in, citing that they rarely get to see God Serena's true power. The duo then witness God Serena utilize his various types of Dragon Slayer Magic and leave his foes in critical condition, after which August stops God Serena from killing them and comments on the latter being the Hybrid Theory: a man blessed by the Dragon Gods. The three Spriggans then make for Fairy Tail, but are halted by Acnologia, who strikes down only God Serena, leaving August utterly bewildered. As Jacob is about to use his Magic on Acnologia, August halts him, pointing out the Dragon King's strength. Having said that, August reminds Jacob about their primary objective; obtaining Fairy Heart. Later, after Jacob's defeat, when Brandish warns the Mages of Fairy Tail of the threat of August, the old wizard is briefly seen walking through a vast, empty lansdscape. Magical Barrier: August can conjure a barrier potent enough to protect those within from a blast of the magnitude released by Laxus Dreyar's lightning blast that completely dispersed the sand of fellow Shield of Spriggan Ajeel's Sands of Death, that left Ajeel astonished when witnessed. Magical Camouflage: August can camouflage his and others' Magical presence, preventing devices like Magic Radars to locate him and others.Immense Magic Power: August holds particularly terrifying reserves and strength in Magic Power, even going beyond what the other members of the Spriggan 12 normally have at their disposal, such that Makarov Dreyar, a member of the highly esteemed Ten Wizard Saints, was shown very visibly frightened of what August alone is capable of after seeing just some of his magical capabilities at work. Considered to be at a completely different level than that among any of his fellow Mages, August is rumored to possess the abilities to control every single element of Magic there is, even being able to control more types of Magic than Zeref himself is able to.

Dark Continent Expedition arc

The Dark Continent Expedition arc is the eighth story arc of the series, and currently spans from Chapter 340 of the manga. The arc was released well after the end of the original anime series and has not been animated in the 2011 series. After the first chapter, Hunter × Hunter was put on a hiatus on March 14, 2012, in which the mangaka used to fix some of the illustrations for the tankōbon for the release of volume 31 and 32 release. All the current chapters were adapted into tankōbon format including chapter 340. On June 2, 2014 the manga returned, and then relapsed to hiatus until April 2016. Ging is more concerned about his men, stating that they are too weak for the Dark Continent. Muherr reveals that they are simply back up; shooting would be taken care of by Golem. Ging is impressed by Golem's capabilities, but Golem refuses to give any more details about their true identity. Ging asks that the soldiers take his money, but Muherr assures that the soldiers can't be bought with money. He questions Ging's motives for sponsoring the soldiers, and Ging says that he did not know the main reason, though there were a number of possible causes. He reveals that he simply wants to support Beyond but thwart Pariston, and the money would act as a gift and a convenience. Muherr finally agrees to talk to the soldiers. Ging declares himself as number 2, but Pariston asks him to lead, curious to see what he would do. Ging replies that he wouldn't hold back.

In Kakin, the king announces that he who could survive the Dark Continent would be king. When this is relayed to Prince Tserriednich, he is overjoyed, declaring that victory would be his. His subordinates who have entered the Hunter Exam reveal their success in becoming Hunters. His butler explains that the succession war would begin once the voyage began, but if any of the participants (the King's legal children) died before, the war would be cancelled. Tserriednich then participates to a Kakin rite, receiving, unbeknownst to him, an "egg" from which his guardian Nen beast will hatch.

In the meanwhile, Kurapika and Mizaistom watch a recording in which the Ox interrogates Beyond on the identity of the spy in the Zodiacs, stating he will let him participate to the sailing ceremony that will take place on the eve of departure, in 34 days. Beyond declares he does not know anything, and does not care about the ceremony; rather, the V5 will most likely pressure the Zodiacs into letting him go. Using his ability, Kurapika confirms he is not lying.

Hunter X Hunter 368 Prediction

I think the next dinner banquet will be this mini-arc’s climax. I wonder if Halkenburg’s beast offers him foresight of the future while he sleeps, and if the massacre of his bodyguards is supposed to be correlated to Sale-Sale’s plan, which “will change the world at the next dinner banquet”, which is within a week.
Thinking about it, Halkenburg does dream about it AFTER returning from a dinner banquet. I’m sensing a correlation. I think it has something to do with Camilla as well. The key moment here comes when a cockroach is sighted, finally giving Kurapika (who’s been in Emperor Time for frighteningly long already) to put his plan into action. But that requires a rather intricate improvization to convince the others that it’s actually Bill (who thankfully proves himself very quick on his feet) manipulating the cockroach and not the queen. She proves herself pretty sporting too, feigning horror at the sight of the vermin and demanding that it be disposed of out of her sight. If either of these two is not up to the challenge, the jig is up – even as is, Babihaima has figured out that there’s something going on with the cockroach being manipulated.
The moment everyone will be counting down towards, of course, is the meeting of Kurapika and Chrollo – or at least their becoming aware of each other (or even one of them doing so). But I suspect it may be a while yet before that happens. I think he have multiple layers of preliminary skirmishes and machinations to go through before that major event.

Hunter X Hunter Sypnosis

Hunters are specialized in a wide variety of fields, ranging from treasure hunting to cooking. They have access to otherwise unavailable funds and information that allow them to pursue their dreams and interests. However, being a hunter is a special privilege, only attained by taking a deadly exam with an extremely low success rate.

Gon Freecss, a 12-year-old boy with the hope of finding his missing father, sets out on a quest to take the Hunter Exam. Along the way, he picks up three companions who also aim to take the dangerous test: the revenge-seeking Kurapika, aspiring doctor Leorio Paladiknight, and a mischievous child the same age as Gon, Killua Zoldyck.

Hunter x Hunter is a classic shounen that follows the story of four aspiring hunters as they embark on a perilous adventure, fighting for their dreams while defying the odds.
